Labex IMU UrPolSens 10/2015-10/2018
Participants: Amjed Belkhiri, Ahmed Boubrima, Leo Le Taro, Walid Bechkit, Hervé Rivano
The partners in this project are Ifsttar, LMFA, EVS, TUBA, and Air Rhone-Alpes, with Inria Agora leading the project. UrPolSens deals with the monitoring of air pollution using low-cost sensors interconnected by a wireless networks. Although they are less accurate than the high-end sensors used today, low-cost autonomous air quality sensors allow to achieve a denser spatial granularity and, hopefully, a better monitoring of air pollution. The main objectives of this project are to improve the modeling of air pollution dispersion; propose efficient models to optimize the deployment the sensors while considering the pollution dispersion and the impact of urban environment on communications; deploy a small-scale network for pollution monitoring as a proof of concept; compare the measured and estimated levels of exposure; study the spatial disparities in exposure between urban areas.

ARC6 “Robot fleet mobility under communication constraints” 10/2016-09/2019
This work is a joint project with the Inria Chroma research group. Considering a fleet of drones moving in a 3D area, looking for a given target, we focus on how to maintain the wireless connectivity of the network of drones while the drones patroll autonomously.The other partners in this project are University of Grenoble and Viameca.

Labex IMU Veleval 10/2017-10/2019
This pluridisciplinary project is leaded by the LAET and gathers researchers from EVS, LIRIS, LLSETI and CITI. The goal is to study, understand and model the behavior of cyclists in an urban environment with a methodology combining quantitative measurements of mobility traces and image analysis with qualitative informations from reactivation interviews. In particular the input of Agora is to provide crowdsourcing tools for gathering mobility data that are optimized for the practice of urban cycling.
